Dried to over coat, maximum, atmospheric 21 d 14 d 7d 3 d 1d
Dried/cured for service 21 d 14 d 7d 3 d 1d

Drying and curing times are determined under controlled temperatures and relative humidity below 85%, and
within the DFT range of the product.

Surface (touch) dry: The state of drying when slight pressure with a finger does not leave an imprint or reveal
tackiness. Dry sand sprinkled on the surface can be brushed off without sticking to or causing damage to the
surface.

Walk-on-dry: Minimum time before the coating can tolerate normal foot traffic without permanent marks,
imprints or other physical damage.

Dried to over coat, minimum: The shortest time allowed before the next coat can be applied.

Dried to over coat, maximum, atmospheric: The longest time allowed before the next coat can be applied
without any surface preparation.

Dried/cured for service: Minimum time before the coating can be permanently exposed to the intended
environment/medium.

The temperatures listed relate to retention of protective properties. Aesthetic properties may suffer at these
temperatures.
Note that the coating will be resistant to various immersion temperatures depending on the specific chemical
and whether immersion is constant or intermittent. Heat resistance is influenced by the total coating system. If
used as part of a system, ensure all coatings in the system have similar heat resistance.
